BioStorage Technologies’ full-service biorepository near Frankfurt, Germany has received green certification from ENTEGA Vertrieb GmbH & Co., a sustainable energy supplier based in Germany.

Using 100% renewable energy, the company’s 18,000-sq.-ft. biorepository uses an estimated 360,000 kilowatt hours (kWh) of power per year, and according to the company, prevents the generation of an estimated 189 tons of carbon dioxide in the first year.

“We are pleased to have all of our global facilities operating with 100% renewable energy,” said F. John Mills, M.D., Ph.D., chairman and chief executive officer at BST. “This initiative demonstrates our commitment to conserving energy and improving the health of the environment by decreasing carbon dioxide emissions.”

Dr. Wolfgang Hoffer, managing director of BST’s European operations, added, “Using renewable energy is only one of the green initiatives underway at our facilities. Additional aspects of the initiative include environmentally conscious management of waste disposal, logistics, water consumption and paper use.”

BioStorage Technologies is also looking into low VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) cleaning agents, the use of fair-trade products in an effort to better serve the environment.
